A stabilizer (20) arrangement for mobile apparatus such as an access platform (14) having a chassis (10, 10) (10) with a functional component (16) (16) movably mounted thereon for movement between a rest position and a use position, comprises a stabilizer member (26) (26) movably mounted with respect to the chassis (10, 10) and having a ground (46)-engaging portion (30, 38) (30), the stabilizer member (26) being movable between a retracted condition in which the ground (46)-engaging portion (30, 38) does not engage the ground (46) and a deployed condition in which the ground (46) -engaging portion (30, 38) engages the ground (46), the stabilizer member (26) and functional component (16) being mechanically interconnected such that, in use, initial functional movement from the rest position of the functional component (16) relative to the chassis (10, 10) causes movement of the stabilizer member (26) from the retracted condition to the deployed condition.
